Thinking of booking this for next April. Has anyone else done it who can answer a few questions please?
What did you do with all your luggage whilst you were on the boat? The website suggests that you just take enough to see you through the journey, so do you have to leave the rest in storage at your hotel?
The cruise caters for up to 4 couples. Did you feel at all "claustrophobic" being with the same few people in such a confined space for 3 days?
The photos only seem to show 4 sunloungers on deck. What happens if there are 8 people - do you have to take turns?
The website also says that prices for drinks and things onboard are normally quoted in US dollars. Presumably they take Thai bahts as well?
Any other comments?
Thanks
Elaine
Sorry Elaine- I can't help at all. We never did go on the evening cruise this time round.
I went on the Manorha Song on a day cruise visiting Grand Palace and Wat Arun, there were six of us in total and we were not using the cabins. Nor did we use the loungers as it was a cloudy day...however the interior deck area was spacious enough...and as all six of us got on there was no feeling of I need to get away from these people.
Photos I have seen on the website show six sunbeds set up on the deck area. I think on a cruise of this calibre a sun bed will be allocated for each guest.
You could always charter the Manorha Dream which only has two cabins, bit more expsensive though.
As the Manorha starts from the Bangkok Marriott there maybe facilities to store luggage there.

I'm not too worried about getting on with people, it's just that if you do happen to find that you're stuck with someone you can't stand for 3 days, I think it could be a bit difficult to get some breathing space without having to resort to developing a headache
I think that your idea of "a bit more expensive" must be different from mine
The Manhora Song costs US$1150 for 2 nights, whereas chartering the Dream would be US$4000!
Anyway, the Song cruise looks better and better each time I look at it, so I think we'll go for it - provided we don't change our minds between now and next April and go somewhere entirely different of course
